I've been offered a job in Canada and have been told there is 'not much climbing involved as they use bucket trucks and work full time year round with tree removals.'
Is this type of operation normal in North America? Coming from the UK I'm used to climbing with a rope and saddle, and I'm not sure I'll be happy if I'm not in the tree too often.
I can see the benifits of the speed of access and I know the trees can be some what larger than in the UK, but I've never had the luxury of large bucket trucks, so I'm just wondering what your opinions are?
